NWFLYFISHER--Send some perfect Trico Parachutes and a "House Lot and Variant" size 12 for me. Since I am the sole judge of the Washington State Fly Fishing Championship this might be seen as a bribe. No such thing! Bribes always welcome.

JAY ALLYN---Got some beautiful HI-Vis Olive Tricos with an extra chironomid emerger and PMD for the judge. My God, but there is some real talent in this state, far exceeding anything there might be in Or,CA,Id, Mt. Wy. Co or Ut, Nv or the like. If you beg to differ, send me some flies or money and I'll see.

And then there is PRESTON SINGELTARY who sent in his "Trailing Shuck Parachute Emerger." Awesome is all.
No wonder Preston is Preston. I feel bad seeing $3.00 arrive under separate cover for postage when all you paid was $0.49 to get them to me. I put the extra money in the bribe, I mean, donations for the needy envelope.

So there's still a few days left but not many. Get dem flies in here. BTW the address is 120 not 129 Pioneer Dr.

Bob, I am with Fortuna on this. If we are supposedly responsible and qualified fly tyers, seems that being on time shouldn't be to much to ask. I say make Saturday's mail the deadline. If you don't have them by then or a recent promise to get them to you ASAP, I say close the swap, and distribute the extras accordingly.

I told you guys that Fortuna was all knucles. SO BE IT.
If you ain't in Saturday's mail or have no good excuse on file, then you ain't.

You don't get the flies on squat let alone some State Championship Entries.

If Ok, I'll send a complete assortment to Macwoody for placing them in the gallery for immortality. Maybe we have a cheaper offer out there...someone who might want to suck up to the State Champion for example; you just know has to be able to fish and he may let you wheel his dolly full of flies throught the brush for him.
